As the most decorated American Track & Field Olympian, Felix retired in 2022 with an astounding thirty-one global medals and multiple world records. The episode highlights her groundbreaking achievements at the Tokyo Olympics in 2020, where she not only won medals but also made history by wearing racing spikes from her own lifestyle and footwear brand, Saysh.

Additionally, Felix's passion for children extends to her involvement with the Right To Play board, where she raises awareness for underserved children in developing regions. The episode concludes by mentioning Felix's current residence in Los Angeles with her husband and daughter, showcasing her balance between family and her impactful pursuits.

    How to Manifest Anything You Want: 4 Simple Steps Backed by Neuroscience & Olympic Athletes

    According to neuroscience research, there are four major mistakes you make when it comes to manifesting.

     

    Done correctly, manifesting is a mindset tool that elite athletes and the world’s most successful people use to perform at the highest levels and achieve remarkable goals.

     

    Today, I’ll reveal those mistakes and more importantly, teach you how to manifest the right way.

     

    This episode is all about the HOW.

     

    If you love takeaways and tools, you’ll eat this up.

     

    Today I’ll lay it all out for you, step by step.

     

    You’ll learn the 4 things you need to do every day if you’re serious about achieving your goals and dreams.

     

    So wherever you stand on the topic of manifesting, this episode is a masterclass in both the science and art of doing it.

     

    For all my cynics and skeptics, this isn’t what you think it is. This is tactical and based in research.

     

    And if you already love vision boards, you’re probably going to have to rip yours up and create a new one once you learn the research related to what works and what doesn’t when it comes to visualization.

     

    I promise you are not going to want to miss this one.

    77: Olympic Destroyer

    77: Olympic Destroyer
    In February 2018, during the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang South Korea, a cyber attack struck, wiping out a lot of the Olympic’s digital infrastructure. Teams rushed to get things back up, but it was bad. Malware had repeatedly wiped the domain controllers rendering a lot of the network unusable. Who would do such a thing? We will talk with Andy Greenberg to discuss Olympic Destroyer, a chapter from his book Sandworm (affiliate link). Sponsors Support for this show comes from Linode.
